Getting to Nanchang

Nanchang is served by Nanchang Changbei International Airport (KHN), located 28 km north of the city centre.  Most visitors arriving from cities outside China will connect through a gateway airport—typically Shanghai-Pudong (PVG), Beijing-Capital (PEK), or Guangzhou (CAN)—before traveling on to Nanchang.

China is also home to the world’s most extensive high-speed rail network.  We encourage teams to consider flying to a gateway city and completing their journey by rail.  This option may be more cost-effective, and affords an excellent opportunity to see more of China.
